Help! Xbox Turns On/off Twice Then Frags!
« on: March 24, 2005, 01:00:00 AM »

HEEEEEELP!!!!!!!!!!!!

I reflashed my bios today with the correct bios, I did it correctly, everything was running smoothly. Even after several boots. But I just went to turn on my xbox with my chip enabled, and I didn't get a video signal at all, it would turn on for 1 second, then power off for 1 second, then power on again for a second, then off for another second, then it would stay on with Flashing Red And Green Error (FRAG).

It does this with both banks 1 and 2.
With the chip Disabled, it will boot the MS Dash normally.

I have a v1.0 xbox, with an X2.6. I flashed my chip with a 1mb bios, bank 1 containing x4981.06 bios, and bank2 FlashBIOSv3.0.3.

It was working perfectly, I had turned the xbox on and played/used it for about a half hour about 5 different times and tested both banks, everything was working perfectly after i had flashed till now!


PLEASE HELP ME!!!!

Hmmm... I just opened it up and looked at everything basically, no loose wires, no faulty connections, nothing. I put it all back together, and it works... Then 2 mins later I reboot and that same shitty ass FRAG again.

DOUBLE YOU TEA EFF ?

How in ze hell is this possible?

And NOW it is working again!!

What could possibly be going wrong?

Now it turns on everytime, but after 20-30 seconds of it being on, the video signal will just cut out, and the eject light will flash on and off, and the power button wont work, the only way I can shut it off at this point is to unplug the console power cord.

It will even boot up and load correctly, I'll be looking through the Avalaunch or Evox dashboard, and all of the sudden poof no video and flashing light and xbox is being gay and I have to unplug the cord. When I put it on Bank 2 for the FlashBIOS, it loads and after approx 40 seconds it does the exact same thing! It will however load the MS dashboard with the chip disabled perfectly.

WHAT THE FUCK?! Is my chip just basically screwed?! Am I going to have to either buy a programmer or just buy another chip!?


HEEELP!

I just got it to boot and stay on for about a minute and in that time I went into the Avalaunch settings and looked at the system temps. The MB was at 109 F, and the CPU was at 186 F. And the graph showed that it was steadily rising. THAT'S INSANE! WHAT THE HELL IS HAPPENING TO MY XBOX?!

What bios (and any edits) was on the chip when it had that problem and what bios (and any edits) did you flash that solved the problem. Just want to know in case there is a bad combo of options or a bad bios or something.
